<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks for your comments Jon! Steve thank you for working the Vickery Auction language into the draft – requested tweaks
<span style="color:red">in red</span>.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="margin-left:.5in;mso-add-space:auto;line-height:115%">
<u>1.1.d Different Types of Auctions <b><span style="color:red">and</span></b> 1.1 f Deliberations.</u> Some Working Group members proposed alternative ways to implement an auction. One such suggestion was to utilize a sealed-bid auction, or sometimes known
as a Vickrey auction, where in this instance, applicants would submit their single highest bid upon application submission. If an applicant’s applied-for string is in contention, the highest bidder would be placed first in the queue to have their application
evaluated and if successful, would pay the second highest bid. It was suggested that this type of auction allows for applicants to bid the precise value of the string.
<span style="color:red">This could almost entirely eliminate contention sets at the beginning of the application process.
</span>Some noted concerns that evaluators, knowing the value placed on the string by an applicant, could be biased in some manner. Others noted that utilizing a different form of auction is still a mechanism that relies heavily on having deep pockets. It was
also noted that this form of auction would need to consider how it handles Applicant Support and community-based applications. Finally, others raised concerns about ICANN securing this highly proprietary information
<span style="color:red">and it was acknowledged that this would need to be factored into the mechanisms that support this auction style.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<span style="color:red"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="margin-left:.5in;mso-add-space:auto;line-height:115%">
<span style="color:red">(To answers Jon’s comment, yes we discussed that the proceeds from these Auctions be distributed to ICANN - so this should be reflected in the doc Steve)<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="margin-left:.5in;mso-add-space:auto;line-height:115%">
<u>1.1.d Random Draw.</u> Another possible alternative discussed was the use of a determinative drawing mechanism to select a “winner” in the contention set, noting that a drawing is simple, effective, and fair. A determinative drawing seems to eliminate a
number of issues with resolving string contention in that it does not favor those with the most money, it does not result in losing applicants receiving a financial benefit (e.g., in the case of most private resolutions), and it could eliminate comparative
evaluations. However, it was pointed out that running a determinative drawing could be encounter issues with being considered a lottery and
<s><span style="color:red">would therefore be disallowed without</span></s><span style="color:red"> would require
</span>proper licensing.<o:p></o:p></p>
